Did you know? Nearly 40% of all divorces in Nevada involve some form of spousal support, also known as alimony. These payments can last months—or even years—and directly impact your financial future. Whether you’re seeking support or being asked to pay it, having a trusted alimony lawyer in Las Vegas makes all the difference.
Alimony in Las Vegas, Nevada: What You Need To Know
Nevada courts don’t use a fixed formula for alimony. Instead, judges look at multiple factors to decide if support should be awarded and how much:
- The length of the marriage
- Each spouse’s income and earning ability
- Education and career sacrifices made during marriage
- The standard of living during the marriage
- Age and health of both spouses
- Any financial misconduct or unfair behavior
These decisions can shape your life. That’s why it’s so important to have an experienced alimony attorney by your side.

Marital and Family Law Cases We Cover
Kristina ErdelecTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I needed help with my divorce process. After bad experience with a different law office, I got a recommendation for "Marathon Law Group". I scheduled a consultation with Mr. Boris and after a conversation with him, I already knew I made the right decision. He was very clear,detailed, and helpful. The paralegal that was assigned to me was Susanna, and I don't have enough words to explain how kind and patient she was with me. My case was not the easiest one, and she was walking me through it step by step. They resolved my issue in a very short time. Every time I had a question and reached out to the office over the phone, they were responsive and determined to help me, no matter who answered the phone. I will be forever grateful, and I wish them the best of luck in the future!! Anthony BTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I hired Mr. Avramski for a child custody matter out of Clark County and there aren't enough good words I can say about Mr. Avramski and Marathon Law Group. Everyone involved in this firm, including Mr. Avramski himself, are terrific people who are extremely passionate about the job they do. I have the upmost respect for Mr. Avramski as he not only exceeded my expectations when hiring him for my case, but he made it apparent to go the extra mile to ensure the best case outcome for me. I could not be more thankful to Mr. Avramski and his wonderful staff and I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone that requires his services. Alicia Henry-BarnardTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Knowledgeable, professional, helpful, informative, honest.... I could go on! Don't go with a cheap attorney like I did..... It ended up costing me tens of thousands instead of going with an attorney who really knows how stuff. Delicia DavisTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I am more than grateful and pleased with the results I received with Kristina Kirigin!! I highly highly recommend this attorney after carefully reviewing several attorneys in nevada! My choice was left between her and Joe riccio before learning that they actually worked together. I was in a highly contested custody battle in between 2 different states with another very aggressive attorney representing my ex. I found Kristina Kirigin after having to fire my last attorney and she was able to turn my entire case around that was originally going in my ex's favor due to his constant lies. We went to trial and prevailed with me getting primary physical custody, final say with legal custody, no travel and attorneys fees!! She made my ex tell the truth which broke his entire case. She also worked out a payment plan with me during the process. Kristina Kirigin and her paralegals are life savers! They were all very quick with responses to each email, text or call I made. Debbie SeiffertTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Joe and his team were 100% there for me during this very stressful time. I can't imagine Joe not being by my side. I highly recommend Joe and his team, I am truly grateful for all of their assistance.Verified by TrustindexTrustindex verified badge is the Universal Symbol of Trust.
